You deserve more views
Aw thank you! I'm glad you like the content!
me watching this while procrastinating my 8 page paper due tomorrow💀
I hope you got it in!
As much as I hate people disrespecting library books, sometimes those notes are so helpful especially when it’s someone from a previous year who clearly had to same assignment 🫣
So true!
a dutch school used this video in a lecture hahaha, congrats!!
AHAHAHAHA HOW???!! WAAROM??
I have my guinea pig next to my school desk. Every time I stay up past midnight doing homework, he gets serenaded with one song of mg choosing because it keeps my moral up. Usually it’s 80s glam rock/metal (Guns n’ Roses is a popular choice), but MCR frequently makes appearances.
your guinea pig is living a good life
Congrats on 1000 subscribers! 🎉
oh my god WHAT
Is it realistic to want to live in uni accommodation for 2nd and 3rd year? like, are there enough spaces for 2nd and 3rd year students to live in student accommodation if they want?
Hey! It’s not really realistic but not impossible. If you were wanting to live in student accommodation you would have to book private so that means companies that work with the uni to provide accommodation but aren’t directly affiliated with the university. I was in a private accommodation in my first year owned and run by Unite Students but I was allocated there by the university. I met other students there who were second, third, fourth year etc who had all applied directly. Uni accommodation itself will likely be full. I hope that helps!
Ah, ok. Thanks, that's really helpfull :)
how do i get involved with this, i neeeeeeed to do this i am tingling
Your whole video brought back so many memories of my uni experience. Even the dammn attic room. However, I was a coffee drinker, I lived on Relentless energy drinks I drank so much of it when I was at uni that I HAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAATE it now. Not energy drinks, just Relentless.
the attic room is a classic! It was crazy how many people lived off of energy drinks at uni!
I have to write a 3000 word essay too! Altho I have an exam today and I have like 21 hours to do it. I can identify so much with this video! (Also I do this ALWAYS too)
good luck!!
Currently procrastinating on the final essay of my entire degree. It's literally due tomorrow and here i am watching all nighter videos to motivate myself. I must like punishment because I've applied for a masters 😭
literally same ahaha i just see it as procrastinating real adulthood. you've got this! after all you are the greatest unicorn per your username ;)
Did the same thing with my second Essay in Mexican American History And I got a passing grade of 75
Literally same rn lmao I have one more essay left and it’s due tomorrow 😭 Hopefully when I start my masters degree I won’t leave things to the last minute lmao
I just checked the student guild page and there doesn't seem to be a sailing society? I was hoping to join :)
Is this supposed to be about pulling an all-nighter essay? Got bored with all the p*****g about so had to turn it off! Bottom line is, be more organised ✌🏼
this was so funny
glad you enjoyed!
with a few weeks left to my final semester for my bachelors i am happy i will never have to suffer like this again this was me literally every assignment i never learn my lesson i think i kind of made it a way of life by now but the feeling of accomplishment afterwards is unreal for me
I feel this
Same position. Apparently procrastination is not just laziness or indiscipline. It's a maladjusted behaviour. Could be related to anxiety, depression or ADD. If this is a regular problem, see a mental health professional. I'm seeing one because I've become incapable of doing my PhD work. Like even reading makes me cry. Still doing really bad with writing articles and papers but PhD work seems impossible. If academia is your future then don't keep doing this. I started out being the person who had her homework and assignments done well before submission to finishing a day or two before the deadline to finishing my master's thesis a few hours before the deadline. It creeps up on you.
thanks for your comment <3 i have recently been diagnosed with adhd so hopefully i can work through this now. it’s the whole reason i stopped posting in the first place and i’m now too overwhelmed to start posting again! if i ever make it back i hope to explain all that. thanks again and I’m glad you’re getting help!
@@taylorskrrrt huh... ironically I think I have ADHD. I told my psychologist the same because I kept identifying with people, particularly women, online who got diagnosed with ADHD as adults. And the trajectory of my behaviour is eerily similar to other people in academia who got an ADHD diagnosis during higher education. Glad you at least discovered it. Knowing is better. I hope you're doing well.
@@simransimran9339 Good luck with your diagnosis journey!
omg this is genuinely me and im a third year.
@@imanf1700 you’ve got this!
hahaha omg i had so much fun watching this!
<3 <3
I just spent 4 hours writing and I only have 700 words out of 1800 I don't know what else to write. Its due in less than a day. Yet here I am procrastinating again lol. This was motivating!
try writing bullshit that is kinda on theme and you might come up with a point that you can put in ?!
Ive got a 2000 word research essay due in ~30 hours that I haven't started researching for, I'll update this comment if I actually submit on time and my grade for it 😅
You can do this! Don’t forget to check back in!
@@taylorskrrrt submitted it on time and got a HD :)
@@elspethschuyler685 well done!!!!!!
It’s 4:07 am. Hand in in approx 13 hours. I can do this.
HELL YEAH YOU CAN!!
@@taylorskrrrt omg update it was so scary if I failed that I would have been kicked off my grad scheme but it was my best mark yet ! Thank u !
@@gabilovessinging oh my goodness that is crazy!!! i’m so glad it all worked out❤️❤️
I felt panic for you omg, I have 1700 words with so much referencing to go in 16 hours
Ewww! That exchange was disgusting
glad it wasn’t me!
Hi, Taylor great and helpful video! I have a question about second year accommodation. Are we have to live with someone in our second year (because I heart a lot) or does everyone choose this way because it's cheaper?
So in second year you can technically stay in uni accommodation (I think only ones not owned by the uni though) but most people choose to move out. You can also live alone but most people do move into houses together. I don't know if it is cheaper but I suppose it depends what you find! Hope this helps!
@@taylorskrrrt yes, Taylor thanks. When you put it like that I assume it is more convenient to move into a house with your friends. What do you think/What would you recommend
@@sidnotthesloth I would personally recommend moving in with other people at uni. Living alone can be fun but at uni it could be extremely isolating. Living with your friends means there’s always people to go do things with, there’s a support group right there if you need it, and there’s people to help you out with adult stuff like bills so you can share that stress between you!
@@taylorskrrrt Thank you so much Taylor <33
This is my first time watching you but is it just me that thinks the glasses and the accents are giving heavy Tom Fosh vibes
big up
Dear Taylor, I am in the same position as you were rn for my 3000 words English essay and it is due tomorrow at noon. I have a day and a half to complete it, so I feel a bit of relief but I am also pretty scared about the amount of work I need to do. Having said that, I watched this video twice and it has really given me so many positive vibes I don't even know how to thank you! Now I am going to sleep and start my research in the morning☺️☀️
you’ve got this!! i’m so glad my video helped🥰🥰
this is one of my favourite essay crisis videos bc u are literally me. the vibes, the attitude, the procrastination, all of it lmao.
twinsies🥰🥰
What mark did u get?
a solid 2:1 :)
The worst thing about an assignment is starting it. The best thing you can do as procrastinator is do the first 5% of your assignment really early, have the introduction, heading and a rough plan down, and it doesn't matter if it is not good enough, you just need to have started something. This will make things much easier, trust me.
such a good tip!!
The worst part is that the essay I have due has to be in APA format and this is the first time writing in this kind of style, and I've been in college since 2019 lmaooo
eugh nothing worse than when they change the formats! try using the website ‘cite this for me’ to help you with your references!
may I ask another question? I have my summer mocks and I’m in y12 so these are for my predicted grades. I’ve seen that I want to study psychology In University of Exeter and the requirements is A A A but let’s say if I get predicted after my summer mocks A A B or A* A B would I still be able to apply and would they consider my UCAS application to lower it. Do you get what I mean?? Sorry for the kinda bad explanation. As I am also not a early applicant, doesn’t that also mean I have progress test and another mock in November to boost them??
i’m not sure about later applicants but the requirements they put on the UCAS website are always their standard requirement but upon offering you a position they might ask for different grades like AAB or even an unconditional offer. I didn’t make the grades I needed for Exeter but because I got an A in what I was going to study (and because they liked my interview) they accepted me anyway. It is not at all uncommon to miss the mark and still get in. That does not of course mean you should stop working but just don’t over stress about it!
@@taylorskrrrt I want to do psychology in Exeter and it said AAA but if I get like biology a A or A* then do you think that would be alright. What do you mean about your subject you got an A so they accepted you. May you extend more on that. Sorry if I’m not making any sense
@@dyane4720 hey i mean i didn’t make the grades they asked for but because i got a high grade in drama at a-level and i wanted to study drama at uni they still let me in. i’m sure it would work in the same way for you but i obviously can’t promise anything
hiya. I just wanted to ask the question about ucas application. Is there anything specific for University of Exeter.
hey! it may have changed from when i applied but i’m pretty sure it was standard practice. some unis want interviews and others don’t but that is the only difference i noticed!
I see the jets sweater ! Are you from New York?! The accent threw me off !
I am not! I’m from the UK but I’ve visited NYC and I loved it and my brother bought me this jumper while we were there❤️
This is such an inspiring story
I remember playing cars 1 the game on pc
i remember tetris on the family computer!
@@taylorskrrrt can you please play cars 1 the game
This honestly looks amazing!
AH I have a 3000 word essay due tomorrow @ 12 and I've done nothing. let's see if I can pull a you and get it in on time :/ idek where to start :D
omg i hope you managed it!!!
@@taylorskrrrt lol I just came to watch this video again and just saw this!!! I did manage to get it done bUTTTTT I'm in the exact same predicament again aaAAAaaaAAAA hateme
@@dude9551 we never learn😩😩
No honestly, I can't keep doing this to myself...but here I am, 8:25am and deadline impending...ah
you can do it!!!!
1:36 hahaha totally can relate to this
Honestly, if you did a real time stream/video of you writing, id be there the entire time. Also, watching this, with no words down, 2 pages, due in 3 days
that’s so sweet! you’ve got this Jade!
@@taylorskrrrt THANKS FOR REPLYING! ID NEVER THINK YOUD REPLY! ILY YOUR THE BEST
@@JadeWatches773 OF COURSE I RESPONDED!! YOU’RE THE BEST TOO!!
You’re actually so entertaining
appreciate you!
None of these types of videos tell you how they got on after the event. I'm so slow at writing essays and it literally takes me hours to do even the introduction. I only have two days in which to complete the assignment but I'm determined to get something for the tutor to mark. Anyway, wish me luck!
after which event? do you mean what grade I got or what i did straight after uploading my assignment? let me know! Best of luck with your essay!!!
Sorry, I meant did you receive a low mark as a result of leaving it to the last minute? Have you since repeated doing all-nighters?
@@Dirtyvinyl23 no worries! for this assignment I received a 64 as my grade which is a 2:1 and that's pretty good but not amazing so a B or C ish grade equivalent. I have done all nighters for about 90% of my assignments for my degree and they've all turned out alright! I just work well under pressure. I did another allnighter video on my channel if you want to check it out !
@@taylorskrrrt Oh I see! Congratulations on receiving those grades! I’ve done some all-nighters and the grades have been like 54-58 but nothing higher though! I remember doing one and I thought that I was going to mess my underpants because I was so stressed out and felt so overwhelmed by it all! Anyway, thanks for replying to my previous messages - not many do on here!
@@Dirtyvinyl23 no worries! I respond when I can!
You know even though it's sad that we procrastinate so frequently, theres this euphoric feeling of finishing right before the deadline and closing all your tabs. I remeber for my english final I submit 20 seconds before 11:59. Oh man the adrenaline combined with the triumph was unmatched (along with my heart rate)
yes! there's something so addictive about that feeling! and the fact that we still make the deadline despite what everyone thought is part of exactly why we do it again!
it's like gambling ughh
this came up in my suggested and relatable with the spoons opposite thornlea- i’m first year and my class goes there after drama (or the ram when we’re in roborough)
I'm so jealous I hope you're loving it!!
Mfw I have seven assignments all due in january and preparing myself to realise i cant leave them to the last minute
preparing yourself to realise ahaha love that! You've got this! Go to a study session with a friend or family member or something to keep you accountable and try to tick one thing off the list. Not necessarily a whole assignment but something. For example, break down your 7 assignments into to do lists and tick one thing off of there (like read the task outline) and then do another small tick and the next thing you know you're making a little progress towards a big goal! Do a little bit everyday and if you miss a day do double tomorrow. Then when one assignment is done give it a huge tick and that's serotonin baby. You've got this!
@@taylorskrrrt Thank you, I've since gotten my first assignment done but my second assignment is really making me shriek internally with how hard it is to understand, not to mention I get extremely distracted
@@ZerodragYT well done for getting the first one done! Is there any way you can speak to a teacher/tutor or someone in your class to help explain what you’re struggling with? I find often talking about my assignment and what I want to say often reveals that I understand more than I thought I did and that I have a lot of ideas (make sure you record this convo - with permission of course - or write down your points straight after)
@@taylorskrrrt I normally email my lecturers for help and feedback in case i'm really struggling with an essay or if something is wrong with a near finalised draft. I do feel like i need to explain it a lot more to them just in case i'm on the right track. Also currently dont have anyone in my class to talk to atm, i'm stuck repeating the remainder of the semester because of financial issues. However now that you mention it I feel like reaching out to at least one person and talk about those specific assignments.
@@ZerodragYT great! i hope it goes well!!! good luck!
i literally have not 1 but 2 assignments to do, and i only have 3 days.. my classmates have been working on them for weeks.. 🙃
don't panic! get started asap and make small deadlines to hit for every couple hours of work you do - i would send them to my mum like i was trying to write 300w in an hour and at the end of the hour if i hadn't sent her something she would push me to work harder! don't worry about producing something amazing just get your points down even if the work looks like you've stuck a load of bullet points together and then when the deadline comes you have something to hand in. Then if you still have time you can go back in and improve the work by making it flow better, adding extra reasoning or evidence when required. Don't try to get it perfect first time because you will get a better grade for a badly put together but complete assignment than you will for an excellent introduction and nothing else. Good luck!!
1:24💀💀
Omggg that “are you lost baby girl” in the thumbnail should have gone to the guy from 365 Days, people keep talking about it and made it a meme lmao 😂 anyways, loved the video as always<3<3 your amazing Taylor x 💕
